Learning up,down, left right hovering
Well I decided to grow a set and learn how to hover, up,down left and right but inverted I'll get the hang of it after awhile and a few crashes later I hope I can get it. https://youtu.be/GbEoQCadpvg

Re: Learning up,down, left right hovering
That's right! Progression! I dig it! Use a lower HS for time & to make it a little less snappy... That's how I started to learn orientations... Matter fact.. That's a great thing to continue practicing.. I'm adding it to my list for next practice session! Good post bud!

Re: Learning up,down, left right hovering
Thanks there cml001. Yeah, what a difference in trying to learn orientation, up side down So, to lower my head speed should I lower my throttle curve down "85 straight across now" or lower the tooth count on the motor pinion "13T now" I'm going to keep on practicing til I learn how to hover and be able to turn left or right with control Talking about concentration, this kind of flying keeps me on edge while learning.

Re: Learning up,down, left right hovering
Nice flying there Dog, I never got the chance to fly inverted but enjoyed what I did. You done really well to recover one manoeuvre that got close to the trees, I think you should post your settings on here, not in PM so we can all learn from it.. Just a thought.

Re: Learning up,down, left right hovering
Post away DOG! With that info I can determine ur gov info for u... But u can use a a flat or v curve.. Either way. I was just say'n a lower HS may give u more flight time and make the heli a bit more docile... It helped me. Think I'm gonna play with HS settings today myself.

Re: Learning up,down, left right hovering
Thanks again . I appreciate the advice .This flying inverted is new and confusing to me . I'm just trying to get the hang of being up/side down and getting my directions going the right way .I'm going to give you all three helis to pick your brain.
1) 450 DFC main blade= 325mm/ Batt.= 3s 2200/30c/ Pinion= 150T main, 13T motor/ ESC = HW 50a/ motor = http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor ... 700kv.html
2) Gaui X3 main blades = 362mm/ Batt.= 6s 1200/40c/ Pinion= 131T main, 12T motor/ ESC= HW 60a/ motor= http://www.xnovamotors.com/xts-2618-motor-series/
3) 500e DFC main blades= 430mm/ Batt.=6s 2650/20-30c/ Pinion= 162T main, 12T motor/ ESC= Yep 80a "Soon to be HW 80a"/ motor http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor ... lass_.html
I do most of my practicing with the 450 til I get what I'm practicing down. Then the X3. The 500 not as much . I need to get to a real field to try fancy stuff with that bird.t Soon I hope. Let me know if you need more information to helps out .
Oh yeah, my throttle curves is a Flat 85 and gov. off. on all 3 helis.

Re: Learning up,down, left right hovering
My 450 is down for the time being so I decided to try some inverted hovering with the X3. I did OK, I guess. I didn't crash so that's OK for Moi. .
https://youtu.be/S5Gt-H-dSHY
and I know there isn't much room for the 500 but I still take her out to play every once in awhile . I tried some inverted hovering too with the 500
https://youtu.be/xAsE_u0ZBEM
I need to get the 450 back flying. I enjoy practicing any new technique on the 450 before trying it out on the X3 or 500.

Try putting the links on separate lines from the text of your post. I fixed up your initial post and the text was running into the links (in some cases even without a space separating them), causing the parser that injects the embedded videos to fail.
